2013年諾貝爾獎生理學或醫學獎獲獎者：（從左至右）美國科學家詹姆斯.羅斯曼和蘭迪.謝克曼、德國科學家托馬斯-C.蘇德霍夫因

 

中新網10月7日電據外媒消息，10月7日，2013年諾貝爾獎生理學或醫學獎在瑞典卡羅琳醫學院揭曉，獲獎者為三人，他們分別是：美國科學家詹姆斯.羅斯曼和蘭迪.舒克曼、德國科學家托馬斯-C.蘇德霍夫因，他們的研究成果是細胞運輸係統的膜融合。

 

據介紹，膜融合的發現表明蛋白質和其他物質可以在細胞內和細胞間進行傳遞，細胞可以用這一過程來阻止它們的活動並且避免混亂。這一突破性發現解釋了為什麽胰島素釋入血液時會有變化、神經細胞之間的信息傳達，以及病毒感染細胞的方式。

 

據報道，三人現在都在美國大學工作。

Rothman Education:
B.A. Yale University, 1971
Ph.D. Harvard University, 1976
Postdoctoral Fellow, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1976-78
 ------------

He has been to all top 1-7 universities except U of Chicago.
 
Rothman graduated summa cum laude from Yale College in 1971 with a degree in physics.
 
He earned a Ph.D. in biological chemistry from Harvard Medical School in 1976.

He then spent two years as a postdoctoral associate in the laboratory of Harvey F. Lodish, a preeminent biochemist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In 1978, Rothman moved to the Department of Biochemistry at Stanford School of Medicine as an assistant professor.

He continued his research at Princeton University from 1988 until 1991, when he became the founding chair of the Department of Cellular Biochemistry and Biophysics at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York and vice chair of the Sloan-Kettering Institute. He subsequently joined Columbia University’s College of Physicians and Surgeons, where he was a professor in the Department of Physiology and Biophysics, the Clyde and Helen Wu Professor of Chemical Biology, and director of the Columbia Genome Center.
